Musicians Around the World Sing "Stand By Me"

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Us-TVg40ExM&fmt=18] For his documentary "Playing or Change: Peace Through Music," filmmaker Mark Johnson traveled through four continents and recorded various musicians--some from unexpected quarters--playing "Stand By Me."

Each musician was charged with layering a single song over the previous artist thus building upon it. Over thirty musicians globally participated in this project and not one artist knew the other or came in contact initially.

Here's the trailer:

I'm skeptical about the impact and transformative nature of projects such as this, but I'm always thankful for them, because in the end I find them to be wonderful.
